By working with homeowners, contractors, developers and utility providers, MEA reduces energy costs for citizens with simple efficiency solutions - such as replacing standard light bulbs with compact fluorescent ones - to more complex renewable energy solutions - such as installing solar photovoltaic systems.

Residential Success

Maryland Energy Administration gives Maryland residents opportunity. Maximizing energy efficiency and generating renewable energy can be an expensive proposition, but MEA grants and loans help homeowners close the gap between thinking "green" and going "green."
